My guess is they go between the calliper and the mounts.

Shimming between caliper/mount if more clearance required makes sense

Atomicandy,

dont use those shims anywhere - they are not required.

I think I've got the bias bar pretty much spot on.

But for peace of mind. Could someone with an Atom 2 with Alcons upfront and sports at the rear post a pic of their bias bar.

Would be much appreciated

Cheers

I've never understood upgrading just the fronts to Alcon. The Atom unusually does as much stopping via the rears as the fronts on Alcons all round.
